Hi Darren,

What is the IR code you are using for your CDJ commands and what is the IR
code causing the false trigger?  Perhaps if you are using codes that are
very similar they are getting confused.  You might want to try different
code sets.

The only thing off the top of my head I can think to adjust would be the
sampling period (adjusted in SlinkeServ).  Try 100 or even 50.

Subject: [slinkelist] Minimizing Slinke IR confusion

Now that I am using my receiver for more than just playing CDs (see other
email about the new dishplayer if you're at all curious as to why…), I am
noticing that 1 of every 50 remote control keypresses on my universal remote
(usually having nothing to do with slinke or cdj) accidentally sets off an
incorrect CDJ automation command.

I'm thinking that the slinke might be accidentally capturing command
fragments and interpreting them wrong.  Since I always have the PC running
CDJ turned with CDJ booted, this can be a bit annoying.  I have lots of IR
commands mapped to a routine that loads up a playlist and starts playing it.
So the results are usually that I'm watching TV and all of a sudden CDJ
kicks in.  The receiver automatically switches the audio source to CD and
I'm listening to Pink Floyd.

Any ideas of parameters I can tweak to minimize this?

thanks,
darren@
